I was late comer to the Lost TV series. In fact, it wasn’t until some time in September 2007 that I actually watched my first episode. It was while I was working in Dublin, and staying at a hotel in Dublin. It was a miserable night, and I only watched it while waiting for Battlestar Galactica to come on. As this particular episode (The Brig) was a climatic one in Season 3, I hadn’t a clue what was going on. But I was impressed enough to go back and watch Season 1.

From the first 5 minutes of the pilot episode, I was hooked. Over 6 seasons, we have been treated to the most compelling TV. And now it is all over. I thought the last episode was bit long, and could have benefited from some editing. But I still cried at a beautiful and elegant end sequence. And now I’m absolutely lost for some stimulating TV to watch. Glee and Sons of Anarchy are decent– but Lost they’re not.
